Coronavirus Resources: Free Online Audio Training

The coronavirus pandemic has darkened the live sound landscape, with events canceled, jobs lost, and colleagues living in isolation. As the industry faces uncertain times, technology providers are stepping up to support audio pros with expanded online learning resources. We’ve put together a list of courses, webinars, and certification classes for any experience level—and they’re all free. (Interested in lighting and control system training? We cover some of those options here.)

We know people are in dire straits, and skills-building isn’t enough to navigate this crisis. For help with financial or mental health issues, MusiCares’ COVID-19 Relief Fund, SoundGirls’ Surviving Coronavirus Resources page, and Tour Support are great starting points. If you’re in a position to support others, consider donating to the organizations above, the Roadie Rescue campaign, joining the call for a federal aid package for the events industry, participating in the Recording Academy’s efforts to advocate for protecting music makers as part of coronavirus relief funding, or even just reaching out to check in on a colleague.
